Need help!!! Operation Chicago

Heading out in the morning to Chicago, and was wondering if anyone could recommend a awesome, family friendly resteraunt. Looking for good quality food, with maybe a small kids menu also. Thanks in advance
Mike

Its a bit corny and i think its a chain but the Cheescake factory at the bottom of the Hancock building is great, another option is to walk out to Navy Peir they have several places out there that are very family friendly.

I know your in Michigan which is a pizza dessert, why not treat the family to real pizza !!! loads of great ones in Chicago

Dont forget to get your Garretts popcorn for the drive home, best popcorn in the world especially the caramel !!!!

I'll take the heat for this but if you have little kids (under 6?) I'd go to Portillos. You can't get much kid friendlier than that. Save the good stuff for when you can stop and stay awhile at dinner.

I'm also a huge fan of Giordano's when surrounded by kids. Just be sure to call ahead to order of you want a deep dish. Not fair to kids to male them sit around waiting for 45 minutes to an hour in a restaurant.

Thanks guys justbtook the kids to the Rainforest Cafe, Giordano's is a must, but that will be tomorrow fortaking back to MI. Cheesecake Factory has pretty good food, and is a dinner option, and am looking into some of the BBQ stuff also
thanks
Mike
